Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 7, 2017 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), Pizza Hut Holdings, LLC, KFC Holding Co. and Taco Bell of America, LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”), each a wholly owned subsidiary of YUM! Brands, Inc. (“YUM” or the “Company”), entered into a Refinancing Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 16, 2016 (as amended by the Refinancing Agreement, dated March 21, 2017, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrowers, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Collateral Agent, Swing Line Lender, an L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent for the Lenders, and the Lenders from time to time party thereto, pursuant to which the Company repriced its existing approximately $500 million Term Loan A facility (the “Term A Loan”) and $1 billion revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”). The Amendment reduces the interest rate applicable to the Term A Loan and for borrowings under the Revolving Facility by 0.75% to adjusted LIBOR plus 1.50%, with a rate stepdown to adjusted LIBOR plus 1.25% in the event the Total Leverage Ratio is less than 2.75 to 1. The maturity date for the Term A Loan and the Revolving Facility has been extended to June 7, 2022 pursuant to the Amendment. Term A Loan amortization payments will begin one full fiscal quarter after the first anniversary of the Amendment Effective Date, which delays the former amortization schedule by approximately one year. All other material provisions of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged.

 

The description of the Amendment set forth above is a summary only, is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full and complete terms contained in the Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

WHEREAS, (a) pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Borrowers have requested (x) Incremental Term Loans in the form of Refinancing Term Loans (the “New Term A Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding $500,000,000, the proceeds of which shall be used to refinance, in full (concurrently with the effectiveness of this Refinancing Amendment), the Term A Loans outstanding on the Second Amendment Effective Date before giving effect to this Refinancing Amendment (the “Existing Term A Loans”) and (y) Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments in the form of Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments (the “New Revolving Credit Commitments”; the loans thereunder “New Revolving Credit Loans”) in an aggregate commitment amount not exceeding $1,000,000,000, which shall be used to refinance and replace in full (concurrently with the effectiveness of this Refinancing Amendment) the Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding before giving effect to this Amendment (the “Existing Revolving Credit Commitments”; the loans thereunder outstanding on the Second Amendment Effective Date before giving effect to this Refinancing Amendment, the “Existing Revolving Credit Loans”).

 

WHEREAS, the Persons holding New Term A Commitments (as defined below) (the “New Term A Lenders”) are severally willing to make New Term A Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date in an aggregate amount equal to their New Term A Commitment, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment;

 

WHEREAS, the Persons holding New Revolving Credit Commitments (the “New Revolving Credit Lenders” and the New Revolving Credit Lenders together with the New Term A Lenders, the “New Lenders”) are severally willing to make New Revolving Credit Commitments available to the Borrowers on the Second Amendment Effective Date in an aggregate commitment amount equal to their New Revolving Credit Commitments, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment;

 

WHEREAS, in accordance with Sections 2.14 and 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, (a) the New Term A Loans shall constitute Term A Loans and shall have the other terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and (b) the Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be subject to the same terms applicable to the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments, as amended hereby to (x) decrease the Applicable Rate with respect to the New Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) to extend the Maturity Date with respect to the New Revolving Credit Commitments to the fifth anniversary of the Second Amendment Effective Date;

 



 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Sections 2.14(d) and 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, the New Lenders have agreed to make modifications to the Existing Credit Agreement to effect the terms of the New Term A Loans and the New Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth below;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 10.01, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent have agreed to amend Sections 2.14(c) and 3.06(d) as set forth in Annex I attached hereto; and

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 2. New Term A Loans and New Revolving Credit Commitments.

 

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each New Term A Lender severally agrees to make a New Term A Loan to the Borrowers on the Second Amendment Effective Date in a principal amount equal to its New Term A Commitment, which shall be made available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds in accordance with the Credit Agreement. The “New Term A Commitment” of any New Term A Lender will be the amount set forth opposite such New Term Lender’s name on Schedule 1 hereto. On the Second Amendment Effective Date, the proceeds of the New Term A Loans shall be applied to prepay in full the Existing Term A Loans. The New Term A Commitments of the New Term A Lenders will be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of the New Term A Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date.

 

(b)           Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each New Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make New Revolving Credit Commitments available to the Borrowers on the Second Amendment Effective Date in an aggregate commitment amount equal to its New Revolving Credit Commitment. The “New Revolving Credit Commitment” of any New Revolving Credit Lender will be the amount set forth opposite such New Revolving Credit Lender’s name on Schedule 2 hereto. On the Second Amendment Effective Date, the New Revolving Credit Commitments shall replace in full the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer acting in such capacities immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment shall continue to act in such capacities immediately following the effectiveness hereof. Each Letter of Credit issued under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed issued under the Credit Agreement following the effectiveness hereof.

 

(c)           On the Second Amendment Effective Date, (i) each existing Term A Lender (immediately prior to giving effect to the transactions herein) (each, an “Existing Term A Lender”) shall have its Existing Term A Loans prepaid in full, (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to each Existing Term A Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on and fees related to the Existing Term A Loans to, but not including, the Second Amendment Effective Date and (iii) all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans (including any Swing Line Loan) shall be prepaid in full,

 



 

and the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments terminated and the Borrowers shall pay to each existing Revolving Credit Lender (immediately prior to giving effect to the transactions herein) all accrued and unpaid interest on and fees related to the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Existing Revolving Credit Commitments to, but not including, the Second Amendment Effective Date.

 

(d)           For the avoidance of doubt, on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, (i) each of the New Term A Loans and the New Revolving Credit Commitments shall each constitute a single Class of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, under the Credit Agreement; (ii) each of the New Term A Lenders and the New Revolving Credit Lenders shall each constitute a single Class of Lenders under the Credit Agreement; (iii) each reference in the Credit Agreement to “Term A Loans” shall be deemed a reference to the New Term A Loans, and each reference to “Term A Lenders” shall be deemed a reference to the New Term A Lenders; and (iv) each reference in the Credit Agreement to “Revolving Credit Loans” shall be deemed a reference to the New Revolving Credit Loans, each reference to “Revolving Credit Commitments” shall be deemed a reference to the New Revolving Credit Commitments and each reference to “Revolving Credit Lenders” shall be deemed a reference to the New Revolving Credit Lenders.

 

(e)           On the Second Amendment Effective Date, the New Revolving Credit Lenders constitute all of the Revolving Credit Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and each such Lender hereby agrees and consents to the amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement set forth in Annex I to this Refinancing Amendment.

In accordance with Section 2.14(d) and Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement and effective as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the pages of the Credit Agreement attached as Annex I hereto.
